i'm so sorry you're sick! that sounds miserable. and your poor mom must feel awful.

i'll throw out some possible causes, but i dont' know if they'll be useful at all:

is throwing up a usual gluten reaction for you?

if not, maybe the chicken was off, or not cooked enough.

or maybe the buttermilk was off. or any of the ingredients really - could just be usual food poisoning?

OR

i know a lot of people have had cc issues with flours/meals (though seems like the most problems are associated with corn meal) - is the rice flour from a facility that also puts out wheat flour?

OR

are all the kitchen surfaces, pots/pans, utensils, cutting boards, colanders, plates and glasses that your mom used completely gluten-free? no possible trace of gluten?

OTHER RANDOM QUESTIONS, what did you have to drink? and did the bag of corn cobs have any additives? did your mom switch dishwashing liquids (i just found out the one i'd been using had gluten in it and had to rewash *everything*)? did you feed any pets, i.e. stick your hand in a gluten-y food bag? new lipstick/lip gloss? toothpaste?

okay, that's all i've got - you probably thought of all those already anyway. in any case, good luck! i hope you feel better soon! i am not a good thrower-upper myself - lots of sympathy. oh - ginger tea helps settle my tummy. if you don't like it warm, just put it on ice. if you don't have a ginger tea bag, you can also just put ginger powder/root/minced in water and make an infusion - same thing.

feel better,

paula

Paula pretty much covered everything I would say. Is anyone else sick? Have you been around anyone who was sick in the past few days or week? Also, check the buttermilk carton for any additives ---just fishing around here. Was the chicken fresh or did it have any marinade? Hope you feel better SOON!! :)

I take dramamine and it seems to help with the nausea. I also take Pepto bismol. Is this a normal reaction when you get gluten? Could it be a stomach virus?

Hope you feel better soon.

I react that way sometimes to rice, which is a bummer because I love rice. Corn is also really hard to digest, and some Celiacs can't tolerate corn at all.

Pepto Bismol chewables are great when I get feeling like this... sip on water, don't feel like you have to eat if you aren't hungry and let your tummy settle. When you do feel like eating, start with something simple like a banana or applesauce. A hot water bottle on the tummy can also work wonders. Rest when you can. Hope you feel better soon.

Thank you all for the help and suggestions,

I am not feeling much better this morning I have eaten a peanut butter banna and it usually helps if I am quesy but I am still feeling sick... The only possibility is the pan, it probably a very very long time ago had something gluten fried in in.. we NEVER fry things so I am thinkin its the pan or the oil somehow, We have used the buttermilk before without any trouble, and the corn was straight from the cob corn was the only ingridents.. My mom mentioned her stomach felt bad in the night maybe it was bad chicken but.. This is how I react to gluten, Imediatly after I ate I began terrible belching.. My brothers tease me it sounds like demmons are coming out and then I threw up after that, my head hurts this morning, but I came on to school.. its hard to just have a "sick day" in college! the only reason I wanna figure out the problem is I dont want this to happen again! thank you all though for the helpful suggestions.. Its so hard to know when you are Celiac Sick or just plain sick.. but I do beilive this is a gluten reaction.!

Did you say GREEN BEANS?

I thought I was okay with LEGUMES for about 5 years until I had a food allergy test and came back SOY was a major food allery for me. SOY is in the legume family along with green beans. Soy cause my thyoid problem. My doc (that I trust confirmed) it again yesterday.

I am also one of those celica's with a problem with corn. It began about 8 years ago with pop corn I becan having seizure with pop corn after the 3 time I stopped popped corn.

Hope you are feeling better!

It is entirely possible that you could have had some reaction to the canola oil. It has been advised that people with gluten intolerance avoid this oil as their have been some reactions. I would guess that canola could be like soy oil. Soy oil is acceptable but some people who use it frequently will develop a sensitivity to it and have some GI distress.

Also, sometimes the buttermilk does not always work in some recipes. I know that I am careful as to how I use it. Then there is always the outside chance that the chicken was bad as other stated. I have also been told by a dietician that chicken is one meat that seems to have chemicals in it and many celiacs do not do well with it.

And another issue that is often forgotten is the fact that people with celiac disease can have problems with foods that are too fatty. Home fried chicken is one item that can be very greasy and cause issues. Hopefully this will not happen to you again. deepvalley

I'm so sorry to hear you are not feeling well.

When I get glutened I'll sometimes drink some Pepto Bismol. It doesn't help much but I think it's a mental aspect. I find putting a heating pad on my tummy eases some of the pain.

I have big problems with Canola oil. I use either Olive oil or Grapeseed oil.

Sure hope you are feeling better quickly. Not a nice way to start off the New Year :(

I get problems with canola oil, too. It took me the longest time to figure that out.

I use olive oil most of the time.

I definitely have issues with Canola. It affects my DH crazy bad, almost instantly. This is one that took awhile to figure out, too.

A few weeks ago I heard that canola is often grown in the same fields as wheat and that Celiacs react due to the cross contamination. I have no idea whether this is true or not, a Celiac-aware chef told me. Anyone know if this is really the case?

I suspect the issue IS cross-contamination, but it seems very prevalent, so I avoid canola all together.

If I'm not mistaken, there is no such thing as a "canola" plant...canola oil is made from rapeseed? Which is grown LIKE wheat, but I'm not sure if they are grown near each other. I'm sure it's really possible.

Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces! Considering...

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
